left of kalmath is a good spot for golden geckos. none of the npcs have guns there. bandits are the worst threat in this sqaure and all they have is spears and knifes.

Thanks for the reply

I know it, it's a good spot yes, but geckos are in small groups here, do you know where there are big groups?

... if you want big groups you need to get a party of players or us a merc leader with alot of mercs. you cant get big groups just as 1 person.

Yes, i am a slaver.
I use some slaves for hunting, they are too weak for fight smallguns NPC, but they can fight a lot of geckos.

slaves dont count towards increase the number of npcs in a enounter unless they are the ones you bought from metzger.
mercs are the best to use to increase the number of npcs in enounters if you dont have player allies.

left of kalmath, i would suggest looking for golden geckos and trappers/bandits. get metal armor mercs because ghouls suck pretty bad.
kill geckos and trappers/bandits and science the armor of the trappers/bandits for hides. you will build up alot of hides fastly and can make a decent amount of money if you keep to it.

melee ghouls are extremally weak. they will die on these geckos. also good place is north-east from ncr, there is geckos, rats, pigrats, mantises.

Thanks for advices.

no you won't lose your slaves if you kill your mercs.

I would say, that the best place for geckos is (north-/south-)west from Necropolis.

What is exactly coords?

I try your three spots, near NRC, i don't like because i m raider and army kill me, so i can't approch the city for hunting ...
Near Necropolis, i see some good encounters, take care to not go in Remnant coords, but, i don't see golden geckos without ghouls, and ghouls have very poor stuff (no armor).
Finaly i try near Klamath, i see no more geckos than Necropolis but i see too Bandits with spears (to trade in little quest to Junktown for easy caps), and a lot of leather armors (to science for increase a lot my loot of geckos skins).

So i think, at least for the moment, near Klamath is the best spot, i find here almost 350 golden skins and 400 white skins.

if you wana change npc to hunt go to 31:8 farm there 300 brahmin hides and i ll buy each for 60caps :)

Post by: café saké on October 17, 2012, 09:06:05 pm
I don't know
I do that because it's a easy way of XP when you sell it in klamath, with my loot i can rush 9-10 first lvl of my next character, and my mercs/slave do the big part of the job   ;D
I prefer that than molerats. Less sweat mouse, more profit!

But if you search brahmin hides, maybe i can do something for you, we speak about that later  ;)
